I figured out my problems with the web frontend PHP parse errors. The rrdtool wasn't installed. I found the sourcecode code, compiled and installed it. So far so good. I still had some PHP errors still but I could see graphs. I sent up the "route default...." for multicasting.

After fiddling with the gmetad and gconfd files, I can query the server with the webfrontend and it gives me all the "right stuff".

I installed the gmond on the 10 clients and started them up.

 [1] a telnet localhost 8651 to the server provided whole lot of XML
 [2] a telnet localhost 8649 to the server provided whole lot of XML
 [3] a telnet client001 8649 to the client provided a reply
     but no metrics

The server is a P3-867 running redhat linux 7.3 and the OSCAR cluster suite. The client is an Athlon-2000+ running redhat 7.3 and the OSCAR cluster suite.

Could someone post their conf files as an example. In my particular case

   server   192.168.0.203 on eth0 and 10.0.0.1 on eth1
   clients  10.0.0.101 to 10.0.0.110 on eth0

Does anyone know how I can debug my setup ?
thanks

I followed you suggestions and attach the output of each telnet command. Both were able to connect, and the machine running gmond responded with
data.
Maybe there's something wrong with php?

Take another look at the metadaemon's output:

>[DTD deleted - trust me, it's OK :P ]
><GANGLIA_XML VERSION="2.5.1" SOURCE="gmetad">
></GANGLIA_XML>

For whatever reason, your metadaemon is either unable to connect to the gmonds specified in your data_source line or it's unable to parse the resulting data and spit it back out again when you telnet to the gmetad port locally.

Parsing errors without using any new metrics - that seems rather weird...

Off the top of my head, I don't remember whether the gmetad debug output offers any hints when it comes to metric parsing but it might be worth a shot. At least you can verify that it's connecting to the data sources properly, if the debug messages in the XML parsing functions aren't specific enough...
